Sunan Abi DawudHadith Number 2820
حَدَّثَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ مَسْعَدَةَ، عَنْ عَوْفٍ، عَنْ أَبِي رَيْحَانَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَنْ أَكْلِ مُعَاقَرَةِ الأَعْرَابِ . قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ اسْمُ أَبِي رَيْحَانَةَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَطَرٍ وَغُنْدَرٌ أَوْقَفَهُ عَلَى ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ .
Abdullah ibn Abbas Narrated from:
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) forbade to eat (the meat of animals) slaughtered by the bedouins for vainglory and pride. Abu Dawud said: The narrator Ghundar narrated this tradition as a saying of Ibn 'Abbas (and not of the Prophet).
[1] It was a custom that two men would compete in hospitality with each other, slaughtering as many camels as they could, whoever slaughtered the most for the other, he was the victor. It was disliked because the animals were slaughtered only to show off and to boast. See no. 3222 for a related narration.Reference : Sunan Abi Dawud 2820In-book reference : Book 16, Hadith 33English translation : Book 15, Hadith 2814
